  1. Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows what a type O should be eating, acording to the ( Eat right 4 your blood type diet)? This is for my daughter. All i remember is that red meats were good and that wheat and dairy were bad for type Os. If nyone has the book or a list I would really appreciate it. Thank you..:help: .Janie

Could you tell me more about this doctor? Where is hid Practice? Thank you so much...Janie

  7. :help: Does anyone know of a doctor that will take a patient who allready has a lapband? I live between Dallas and Ft. Worth and my doctor does not take my new insurance and the names of the referrals he gave will not take a patient who is allready banded. I am desperate for a doctor. If anyone can help I will be so grateful. Thanks, Janie
  8. Hi Ryan. I was touched by your post. You have caused me to come out of hiding. Do you remember me? I have been lurking when I can . I have wondered where you have been and where Teresa and Darcy aer. I still see that Michele and Delara and Alex are all still around. And others I wonder about also. I have been banded for over a year and lost over 50lbs and got doen to 198lbs. But three weeks ago I started eating like pre band days. I am back on track now but am afraid to get on the scales to see the damage, I feel the damag of a 3 week pig out. Anyway I loved your post. Great to hear from you, Thanks Janie :mad:
  9. Congratulations! I have 3 grandchildren all under the age of 2. Each daughter has a baby and one is expecting another one in October. It is great I love it. You will have so much fun. Post a oicture soon...Janie

  13. Hi I live in North Richland Hill. I have never seen this site. I would be intrested in getting together sometimes also I need a new Doctor. My insurance changed and Dr. Rodriquez does not take my new insurance..Thanks Janie
  14. Hi every body.Last week was my band anniversary. I started at 249 and now I ame 193. I have lost 56 lbs. I had hoped to loose 60 lbs by now. But I think I am doing good especially since I have never had a fill or had a PB. I plan on loosing about 30 more pounds but I already feel so much better and have more confidence, and its great to get some new clothes out of the regular people size. I am very grateful for my band...Best wishes...Janie
  15. Thank You everyone for your comments! Pat, my next goal is to loose 20 more lbs and start exercising again. I feel a little guilty expressing my good news when there is such sad news on the board about Blossom. Thanks again everyone...Love Janie
